If teams and the FA are serious about Homophobia, then it is it time for them to do more than talk!

There are more LGBT football fans supporting home and away games than people think. Instead of talk and rhetoric it is time to start doing some thing which is visible!

It is a long shot… but surely it won’t hurt if local teams support their local Pride by participating being a visible part of the parades.

The could also host the local LGBT team during their pride festivities to a game at the home ground with proceeds to charity. People will say rules and regulations would be a hurdle… if some one leads other will follow! Dialogue only goes so far! actions speak louder than words!

Teams also need to start donating at least 2 minutes per game or during televised games for electronic leader boards around the pitch to announce “Homophobia and Racist conduct will result in a life time ban by this team”
